Hmm let me think... will devs stop making games that sell good?

Zombies have been in for a number of years now and show no sign of stopping in movies, books, games, TV shows, etc. Walking dead is quite popular. The ARMA 2 mod shows there's so much demand (apparently more than for their base game), that the devs decided to do a standalone game.

Fastest way to get public fixated on something else is to come up with something different/better/more interesting. So go for it.

I thought it would be more like a Beach head-style game where you're actually, you know, sniping them as they slowly approach your location until I saw the Steam video which has maybe 10% of the entire video dedicated to sniping and their X-Ray kill shot camera.

The rest just looked like 'meh' over-the-shoulder, half-assed, Gears-style shooter which turned me from curious to buy in to a big nope.

Watched the TotalBiscuit video of the Sniper Elite - Nazi Zombie ArmyLooks pretty boring. He wasn't very excited about it either.Wish this zombie wave in games would finally stop now and devs would move on.
